Any more info out there on this event, Times? Location (meetings, weigh in)? Rules? (i tought the 50 fish max last year was mint). Is there a limit on the # of teams? Who else is planning on attending? Sorry for all the questions, I'm trying to get a plan together.
Thanks, Nate

Isn't the point of having a limit to get better quality fish in not more of them?? If only 4 out of 30 (not sure on the exact number of guys) were at 47 -50 fish shouldn't the limit be lowered not raised. I thought the Idea of the limit was to get people to target other fish (stripers). I'm cool with it either way Im just not sure what purpose any limit has if its not one that 1/2-1/4 of the competitors reach. If the limit was 40 last year the results would have been different, but the competitors with the biggest fish and the most stripers would have won.

Sorry if I sound like i am bitching, i'm just giving my opinion. My standings would not have changed at all. I think the RMSA does a fantastic job with these events and I am proud to be a member.

I'm looking forward to this tournement, last year was a blast.

Quantity is the game with freshwater. Actually, quantity is the game with all high level meets. But since we're dealing primarily with invasive trash fish, more is better. Even if you set a 40 fish limit, everyone would still shoot as much as possible, and then you get into seperating the bigger fish at the weigh in, which take MUCHO time. 65 sounds good to me.

This is the last week to get your applications in to get in the brochure. We have had an influx of applications this week. This years list of teams is even better than last years,gonna be an exciting Nationals!!!!

less than a week to go, Im planning on camping in stanton creek if anyone wants to join up. we can beach the boats right at camp and motor around the corner to bullfrog when the time comes. see you all there
